NEW FURNITURE^
Two Ingenious and Useful Inven-
tions For the Home.
A USEFUL DRESSING TABLE.
The Chafing Dish Cabinet Is the Soul
of Hospitality—A Boon to People
Living In Small Apartments and In
Boarding Houses.
A folding dressing table and a chaf
ing ('ish cabinet are the latest ingen
ious pieces of furniture made for the
dwellers of small houses and apart
ments where every inch of room
counts and where every clever space
■aving device that is attractive to look
upon and yet adds to the comfort of
living is welcomed with open purses.
The last word in compactness of ar
rangement and simplicity of design is
spoken in these last examples of the
artisan's genius.
The dressing table is a reproduction
from an antique adapted to present
<lay needs with present day mechan
ism concealed in its polished mahog

FOLDING DBBBBXNG TABLE.
tie table that could stand unquestioned
in the parlor <>r living room—or any
place iv the flat f<>r that matter—into
the most convenient and spacious
dressing table. The top is divided into
two parts. By lifting the leaves on
their invisible hinges a center part
rises from below like an elevator,
bringing into view a well selected t"i
-Ift outfit mounted iv silver, each piece
fitting perfectly in its own liule com
partment—-comb, brush, hand mirror,
powder and salve boxes and manicure
Implements. In the middle, lying liar
on its face, is a good sized mirror tit
ted with hinges and uprights that is
easily lifted in place after the table is
open and f tided liar when it is to be
closed. Nothing could l>e more Ingen
deceiving and serve two pur
i.fcgjH so skillfully.
|^ ._' i:;■ !i cabinet, so unob
sflfff/re in its outside appearance, is
tit soul of hospitality. Within its
smooth wooden doors are four com
partments and two drawers. One, the
lowest, is set aside for the chafing
dish resting on a portable tray <»f while
opaque glass bound with wood, In
Which are bandies at either end. The
glass is quickly cleansed and does not
become too hot to touch. In another
compartment is a fixed rack for glass
es and another, which swings out so
as to be in easy reach, for a set of
cruets and condiments and a place

necessary fur a chatinjr dish supper.
There la a place for a cracker jar, too,
&*d in the drawers are napkins, knives
and forks. Besides, there is room for
Plates, if they must be kept there, and
any number of packages, from which
the supper is culletL The top is flat
and just the right height for the cook
to stand comfortably to stir. It is a
boon to the hospitable hearts of peo
ple who live in apartment hotels acd
boarding houses, where nothing tastes
as good as something made by one's
own hand and where nothing is more
fun than to gather around a steaming
Chafing dish for a rarebit or an a la
